The point is that a machine that doesn’t compensate for melanin content will work for no one. How black are we talking about? Kamala Harris or Lupita Nyong’o? Who are you going to calibrate for?
No, the point is that they’re calibrated for the people who they were tested on/made by and that the vast majority of the population isn’t going to pay extra for a feature they are never going to need. It’s not like the $20 finger clip you got at CVS is a piece of lab equipment that’s being regularly recertified by an expert. As long as it says something over ~97% most people are happy and move on with their day.
